Roth IRA & 401k tax strategy question

I have a Roth IRA and then a taxable 401K. From a tax strategy perspective, would I be better off allocating assets with probable higher capital gains (i.e. small cap stocks) in my Roth IRA with tax-free distributions while allocating assets with lower probable capital gains (i.e. large cap stocks) in my 401K that will have taxable distributions?

Seems fairly straightforward to me.
Are you maxing pretax contributions? I could see questions arising regarding why you are contributing to a taxable 401k if you qualify for a Roth.
